Article Synopsis
- - Gastritis cystica profunda (GCP) is a rare, benign gastric lesion characterized by cystic gland growth, often misdiagnosed due to its unclear cause.
- - A case study describes a patient with melena and discomfort, where upper GI endoscopy and imaging suggested a gastric stromal tumor, leading to surgical resection.
- - Histological analysis confirmed GCP with unique inflammatory features, highlighting GCP as a potential cause of upper GI bleeding that requires careful diagnosis and treatment approaches.
Purpose: Groin hernias are a common condition that can be treated with various surgical techniques, including open surgery and laparoscopic approaches.

This paper presents a standardized and systematic approach to trans-abdominal pre-peritoneal (TAPP) groin hernioplasty, which is useful for training young surgeons.
